Default Do these Shorty Headers Fit?

Hello,

There is someone somewhat local selling brand new headers (pictures below) at a really good price. I have a 1999 Auto C5 and wanted to know if anyone could identify from the pictures 1. The Brand. 2. If they would fit Bolt On my C5.

It would be about a 6 hour drive (there and back) and just wanted save myself the trip and money if someone could identify from the pictures, they would not fit.

Any help would be appreciated. Just got my first C5 a few weeks ago so I am new to the corvette world. Thanks!

Looks like eBay headers, I have no experience with them.

I would only go with long tube headers which have shown to provide better gains. There are many options, even cheaper ebay ones. I would do you tube searches and watch a few vids before you make any decisions. Good luck

I would call those long tubes not shorties. Shorty headers usually bolt up to the factory mid pipes. You will need to know which headers those are to buy the correct mid pipes.
